Details:
The Five Tones are a high-energy, primal journey to the juke joints of Mississippi. Haunting, reverb-drenched guitar, dynamic harmonica, and a freight train rhythm section form this blues/rock trio. Cody Shipley plays vintage Silvertone guitars from the early 60’s to get a vintage sound that combines the early blues sounds of John Lee Hooker and R.L. Burnside with the power trio rock of the 60’s from bands like Cream and Jimi Hendrix.

“Cody Shipley breathes new life into the blues, He’s a fiery and inventive guitarist with a highly original approach to playing slide. His voice perfectly suits his material, and his talent and presentation belie his age. Cody and bassist Aaron Clouse play with an almost-telepathic connection. Aaron provides the faultless, rock-solid foundation from which Cody’s grinding fills and soaring, wailing solos cry out.”
-Birmingham Weekly
“Cody Shipley has mastered his guitar…the slide work is polished and slick as it gets. Tremendous talent, raw power, and self-assurance. Combined with Aaron Clouse on bass, The Five Tones comes across showing a variety of mixed influences combining to make an imaginative and creative sound all their own.”
